Thanks Dayclona for the pics and the info. I'll get to the garage after dinner to check the #s on the trans. And you are correct, they were pretty brutal at the RMV. Two people firing questions at me about the history of the car. Conversation almost went bad at one point but luckily I steered it back on track and got my title.

There's a pretty good swap/show in Fitchburg this weekend; I'll see if anyone has some rivets. I'll definately replace them to avoid any questions down the road.
